Default F-Body in SE CT Area Needed for Custom Seat Bracket Fitment

We've gotten some feedback that we need to relocate some holes on our mounting brackets for 82-02 Camaro/Firebirds. Anyone in the SE CT area looking for seats and have a car that can be used for test fitting?

Samples of some of our work is below. More info on the website.

So if we donate our car for test fitting do we get a discount on the seats?

I will donate the brackets which saves $130 to the first prerson who pays for seats and lets us use their car to test fit the brackets.

Not a bad deal, if no one else goes for it I will... but it'll be a week maybe two before I could get the car down to you guys.

Our seats are made to order due to the amount of options we offer. They usually take about 3 weeks to make. If someone is close enough they would like to sit in some seats and see material and color samples they can do that and get the seats in production in the meantime.

Yeah if you click on the link for each seat they say "Price is for 2 seats!"

The first time I looked I thought the same thing

Yes. That is for the seats with black leather seating surfaces ("A" panels in description). The premium black leather is $799 a set and has leather on the A, B and C panels. This is for the standard back bolster seats. The deeper back seats are $80 more per pair and other option can effect the pirice as well.

They are not a seat from a different company just recovered. However, we do use factories in Asia and Mexico for the components and complete the seats here. I know many large seat companies from Italy and other countries that have some of their frames or other components made in the same factory as we do. If we made all components here the seat would cost more than most major seat companies and all the guys who said they wanted a product made here would say - I'm not paying that.

UNDERSTOOD! But it would be cool if someone could make a U.S. built/sourced performance aftermarket seat (that's NOT an aluminum shell) for ANY price. Are Racetech shells made here??
